It's on the drive!

Post by lloydy »

nice sight about 11.30 this morning

Got it on the drive without breaking it

One suprise i found is i can't lock the passenger door, having a play with the mechanism, thought i fixed it. BUT it was then jammed shut
Have managed to get so as long as i open it from inside it works, and doesn't open from outside now. Looks like a screwdriver has been used too try and open it in the past. A new lock set will be found as the slider doesn't open from the key either.
Will see if i can find a way of getting a new fob for the central locking as well

So now the work begins

Good man Lloyd - bringing it to the F&G southern XMas bash for a butcher's?
Is it now about time to talk about security? £300 of mine is going to get spent on a Maplin IR 4-cam cctv for the house asap to add to the other measures...
